The family room was way too dark with the slate floor, plantation shutters, dark beige walls and the horrible dirty smelly shag carpet. I had the carpet cleaned and deodorized but that just made the carpet smell like a wet dog. So I had to pull the carpet up and throw it away.
We painted the room the same color as the master since we had extra paint leftover. I think the new paint has really lightened up the room. Its still a cave but a little brighter.
Next we had to get new carpet, since I made the executive decision to get rid of the old one due the smell and stains. After we got the carpet ordered, that was going to take 3 weeks to get in and installed.
Next on the list was finding couches. Alex had several requests; recliner, armrest with cup holder and fabric. I only wanted the color to be able hide dirt since people wipe their fingers on the armrest. He had several options to choose from reclining love-seat with console, love-seat without console or couch with recliners on the end. We opted for 2 reclining love-seats with consoles plus the wedge for an addition seat.
